Distributed wind energy for non-interconnected areas

Distributed Wind Demonstration Project – Colombia

1. Background

Parsons Kinetics has developed a modular distributed wind turbine system optimized for small-scale deployment and moderate wind regimes. The system is delivered up to the turbine controller level, including generation, control architecture, and safety mechanisms.

The technology has been technically validated; however, the next strategic step is to demonstrate a fully integrated distributed wind project, including:

• site assessment

• system integration (inverter, storage if needed, grid/off-grid interface)

• logistics and installation

• operational framework

• performance monitoring under real conditions

To achieve this, we are seeking a UK-based renewable energy project developer with strong technical and logistical experience.

2. Project Objective

To implement a first demonstration project of distributed wind energy in Colombia, validating:

• Technical integration of the wind turbine within a complete energy system

• Real-world LCOE at small scale

• Operational reliability in semi-remote contexts

• Project development and deployment workflows

• Replicability potential.

This will serve as a foundation for scaling distributed wind projects across rural and productive-use environments in Latin America.

3. Scope of Collaboration

Parsons Kinetics will provide:

• Wind turbine system (up to controller level)

• Engineering documentation

• Technical support during installation and commissioning

• Performance monitoring and data analytics
